Fireworks for the 4th of July



In our school, the kids are getting ready for Independence Day by making a few kid-friendly fireworks. Our Pre-K Summer Camp kids started by drawing the fireworks with a white crayon, then traced with glue and sprinkled with glitter.





Our younger 3 year old class dipped Koosh Balls in paint and printed fireworks. They added a little glitter to make it sparkle!






I'm heading to the beach soon where we'll see some fireworks of our own. Happy 4th of July!

    We've been doing 'human fireworks' for the end of my song and picture book entitled "Red, White and Blue"..... so I'm especially interested in art projects w/fireworks.
